VOL XVII / ISSUE #2 / JUNE 12 for private circulation only From the Chairman’s Desk Success and Leadership At Muthoot Group, it is our aim to see, be and express the real self that we are – complete, fulfilled and abundant. Well, this makes us strive even harder towards the steeper targets that we set for ourselves. We question our own growth and not that of others. As the nation’s largest Gold Loan Company, has registered an impressive growth in all business metrics in the financial year 2011-12. The total income went up by 96% and the net profit registered a growth of 80%. Assets valued at ` 24673 crore reported a robust growth of 55%. In line with the good performance, the Board of Directors of the Company has recommended, a maiden dividend of 40% for the fiscal ended March 2012 subject to the shareholders approval. As our branch network expanded to 3678 and the team growing by 52% in size, we have added 13 lakh new gold loan accounts in the year. With restrictions being imposed by The Reserve Bank of in March 2012 on the maximum loan that can be given against the value of the jewels pledged, we have substantially redefined the operating environment of the Company. Concrete steps are being taken to sustain growth and profitability in the changing business environment and in strict compliance with the RBI directives. Moving beyond the objective of profit, we have redefined the social purpose of the Company. Having done this, we have attempted at bringing about a convergence of values, perspectives and the interests of social aspects of the business environment. As part of the ensuing corporate social responsibility drive, Muthoot Finance has recently been conferred the Golden Peacock International Award in the financial services sector. We have taken a conscious decision to commit ourselves to social upliftment as a part of our policy. God Almighty was kind to us in showering His blessings 30, 60 and 100 fold on us. So we are thankful to God, our staff members and our valued customers. I strongly believe that courage is a state of mind and we at The Muthoot Group would like to move ahead with mettle to win, always. For this I desire each one to come up as a lion-hearted individual, willing to go the extra mile. Chairman M.G. George Muthoot
